hey mate,
here is your answer,
Van Mahotsav is an annual tree-planting festival in India, celebrated in the first week of July. This movement was initiated in the year 1950 by India's then Union Minister for Agriculture, Kulapati Dr.K M Munshi.
It was started to create awareness in the mind of the people for the conservation of forests and planting of new trees.
Van Mahotsava is celebrated as a festival of life. In India it was started as a crusade to save mother earth.
The name Van Mahotsava means 'the festival of trees'.
It began in July 1947 after a flourishing tree planting drive was undertaken in Delhi, in which national leaders like Dr Rajendra Prasad and Jawaharlal Nehru participated. The festival was simultaneously celebrated in a number of states in India.
Since then, thousands of saplings of diverse species are planted with energetic participation of the locals and various agencies like the forest department.
